NWR: Totally bummed today...

So, yes, I'm a newbie. And my first post (sorta) is NWR. I'm just completely bummed today and I need to get this of my chest so I can go make dinner. I don't know if it's the depo shot that's making me this moody or what. I am pretty much on the verge of tears right now. Work is completely stressing me out. I supervise 10 people and my boss is kind of an airhead, to put it lightly. Seriously, I don't know how she can come up with so many stupid questions before 8am (I get in at 7:30 and she gets in sometime between then and 8). It's to the point where I can't even turn around to answer her because of the eye rolling that I'm doing and knowing that it would be that much more tempting to either jump down her throat or slap her or, hey, maybe do both. And, most of the stuff that she's asking me about, I'm not in charge of! I guess that's one major downside of trying to be good at what you do. Maybe I should just start not knowing the answer to her questions and stop trying to figure out all this stuff that she wants me to. Maybe if I just lay low and don't respond to her asinine emails for at least an hour (maybe 2), she'll get the point that I'm busy with my other stuff and don't really have the time (or desire) to help her out. Ok, I feel a lot better ... calmed down enough to face FI again.And, yes, I kind of was snarky with FI when I got home from work today. Actually, I've been that way to him since basically this morning. On the car ride to work, I'm sure I was all sorts of fun. Knowing that I would face a multitude of inevitable questions once I got into work, I was not too pleasant. Me thinks I'm in need of a day off. Well, that's my rant and hi to everyone!

    I'm sorry work isn't going so well. It is so frustrating to have an annoying supervisor. I understand that FI is the easiest person to take things out on. When I get stressed, FI is automatically under my wrath. Poor FIs!

    Thanks! Knowing there are only 2 days left, I'm feeling a lot better. And tomorrow is our negative one year! Not that we'll really be doing much of anything

  • Ohh..that's exciting. Congrats! In two weeks we'll be celebrating 1 yr of being engaged! It feels like forever. And the wedding still feels like a long time away.

    Thanks! The wedding definitely seems like so far away! We've only been engaged for a little over a month now. And, we've only been together for about 8 months.My job is the same way! Everybody is so overworked and I don't want the people under me to be extremely stressed, so I offer to help when I can. That usually bites me in the butt, though, because I swear my boss knows when I'm doing it and just throws more things at me. Today was good, though. I totally chilled at work despite being super busy. I had the realization that no matter how hard I try, my desk will never be clean by the end of the day, so why stress trying to get more done in a day than what really needs to be done?
